7/10
Informative but extremely theatrical
17 May 2023
The series was very informative, I liked the deep dive into the perpatrators and how the attack was effecting the city of boston after the fact. But I will say the dramatic music is 10x louder then the voices of the people speaking on their experiences. Also the dramatic reenactments and random shots of actors with no face was definitely sensationalizing the whole thing and I really didn't care for it. I think where it made up for it was with information and including people who worked directly on the case. As well as friends and family of those who passed away during the bombing and even a friend of one of the bombers. Overall a good documentary but just be prepared for music overshadowing the voices of people talking and random unnecessary dramatic reenactments. Kind of reminds me of a better quality Investigation Discovery documentary.
